What should have been a normal business transaction turned into a grisly attempted murder in New York City yesterday.
Police say 33-year old Akeem Ajimotokan, Colombia University employee was attempting to sell his 2008 BMW for $46,000 to ex-con Barion Blake and nearly paid for it with his life.
According to reports the 6-8 230 pound Blake attacked Ajimotokan, stabbing him repeatedly in the face and upper body. The force of the blows broke Ajimotokan's neck and left one of his ears dangling.
After stuffing his victim in the BMW's trunk. Blake went through a series of events that included a police chase and car accident with a cab in Manhattan, that destroyed the front end of the BMW.
By the time police arrived Blake had fled. While inspecting the vehicle they found the victim in the trunk barely clinging to life. He was rushed to Harlem Hospital where he is in a coma.
Police also found a bill of sale in the car with Blake's name on it. The ex-con has several convictions for stealing BMW's in the past. Police are still searching for him.
"I am horrified and shocked," the victim's brother, Ayo Ajim, a Houston doctor told the New York Daily News. "I hope they find him quickly, so he doesn't hurt anyone else."
